The president of the Philippines is a “highly impulsive individual who has difficulty controlling his urges and emotions” and suffers from a long-term psychological condition, according to a rediscovered assessment of his mental health.

A psychological report on Rodrigo Duterte was commissioned by Dr Natividad Dayan during the annulment of his marriage to ex-wife Elizabeth Zimmerman in July 1998, when Mr Duterte was mayor of Davao City.

The assessment found Mr Duterte suffered from “antisocial narcissistic personality disorder”, a pattern of abnormal behaviour characterised by "gross indifference, insensitivity and self-centeredness" and "grandiose sense of self-entitlement and manipulative behaviours".

The politician was described as having a “pervasive tendency to demean, humiliate others and violate their rights and feelings”, and was “unable to reflect on the consequences of his actions.”

He was found to readily engage in “unhealthy and destructive behaviours” and had “poor capacity for objective judgement”, failing to “see things in the light of facts”.

Mr Duterte recently made headlines for launching expletive-laden attacks against the EU and US president Barack Obama, as thousands continue to be killed without trial as part of the leader’s war on illegal drugs.

Court papers from the trial showed Dr Dayan concluded Mr Duterte was “psychologically incapacitated to handle essential marital obligations”, due to his “inability for loyalty and commitment” and “lack of capacity for remorse and guilt".

During the court case, lawyers also spoke of Mr Duterte’s “womanising” ways and detailed claims of numerous affairs he was involved in while married to Ms Zimmerman.

In her testimony, Ms Zimmerman described her marriage to Duterte as “miserable and unhappy” and criticised his volatile temper, according to ABS-CBN News.

Filipino actress Agot Isidro recently launched an angry online tirade against Mr Duterte, describing him as a "psychopath" and telling him to "get checked".

More than 3,600 people have been killed in Mr Duterte’s first 100 days in office as part of his brutal crackdown on drugs, human rights experts have estimated.

The president recently said his extrajudicial crackdown on drug dealers and criminals will continue because he “cannot kill them all”.

Amnesty International said Mr Duterte’s “first 100 days as President have been marked by state-sanctioned violence on a truly shocking scale”

Some mental health assessments are pure BS. It's a way to for "authorities" to control someone who acts against "standards". In the end it is a matter of who's calling someone "sick" and who benefits from it. It's a power struggle. Ask doctors if there is a lab test to check mental health and they'll shy away from the answer.

The president is still trusted by a lot of people. And that is a fact.

8:35 This mental assesment is just validates what he is already showing. His narcissistic tendencies are very apparent with his everybody else is wrong he's the only one right attitude. And no you had a high trust rating too in his first 100 days and that is a fact. Look how fickle pinoy trust are now.

Iyong mga nagsasabi dyan na "as if Yong pinalitan nya ay normal) just compare their acts and deeds between Onoy and Duterte and all your doubt will be answered ! Just be open minded not be a blind fallowers.

He is trying to do his part para mapabuti tayo as a nation. He may not be perfect but he IS doing what presidents from long before failed to do. It's not an easy task. E yun ngang mga "normal" na former presidents didn't even address the existence of corruption, ngayon ka pa gumaganyan? reklamo much?

10:36, sa umpisa lang yan. Sa lahat ng presidente, siya ang puro ngawa, mura and press release. You think this is normal? Long way to go for 6 years to find out the real intentions of this guy. How can you work harmoniously in an office kung palamura at maingay ang boss mo araw2? No matter how good his intentions are, he would still give his employees stress on a daily basis knowing he bullies everyone. Its difficult to have a president who is unpredictable and unstable. Our poor country...

10:36 so wala ng corruption ngayon? pano napabuti ang nation? by arguing with the rest of the world to be chummy with china? Look up Venezuela dahil ganun ang bagsak ng pilipinas if this continues. dutertards only see what is in front of you and not the big picture tsk tsk tsk

10:36 PM As if you know the best way to do something about corruption. Pnoy did it by establishing ways to make everything more transparent. Without transparency there is no true measure of how corrupt the government and it's officials is. At the moment it is all a matter of "He says, she says." Sorry sa totoo lang, meron na ba talaga ginawa si Du30 dyan? At the moment, with the way they fabricate evidence, any words from them cannot be trusted.

Close to 4,000 pa lang naman any napapatay na mga Filipino in a span of three months and President Duterte said he will kill 3 million drug pushers and users. Tsaka na kayo magreklamo pag naka one million man lang at least. Paso lang baka maunahan siya ng International Tribunal Court.

"Sad to say, you would not care to even see the changes that is happening now far from all his offensive curses. But of course talk is cheap, but actions moved mountains - and brought out in the open 600 thousand plus drug addicts to surrender and to begin a new life sober and free."

5:21, what 8:57 is trying to say is psychological incapacity yung grounds nila for annulment and the only way daw po para magrant yung case is to have a statement like this coming from a psychologist, mapa totoo man o hindi.

See it is GOD COMPLEX. Here it is the description and the annulment details solidifies it:

A person with a god complex may refuse to admit the possibility of their error or failure, even in the face of irrefutable evidence, intractable problems or difficult or impossible tasks. The person is also highly dogmatic in their views, meaning the person speaks of their personal opinions as though they are unquestionably correct. Someone with a god complex may exhibit no regard for the conventions and demands of society, and may request special consideration or privileges.

Hindi naman sya sakit but he is predisposed to that as described. Yun lang as a leader he needs to not think only for himself but for the whole country, so listening and evaluation of any criticism is important.

If you are not aware how annulment cases work, wag ka magcomment. Ganyan ang annulment cases, in order for the annulment to be granted asap, one has to be the bad egg. Both parties involved has to settle on who and they will pay a professional to state on paper their claim to annulment. Research ka po. That's how it works. Wag masyado sa hatred teh, baka atakihin ka.

Actually, consistent naman yan with his actions. Pero lets focus, guys, wag magpasidetrack sa insults and ad hominem attacks. Let's protest against issues and actions and not against personalities lest we become as tards.

2:58AMThe us merely voiced out their concern for the killings, how can that be meddling? If they were really meddling, they would have done something about it. Just imagine Germany if no other country said and did anything about the killing of jews? Katulad mo din ang mga Germans nun yes lang ng yes sa ginagawa ng leader nila.

Tama nga sinabi ni Agot. Psychopathy was the old term for antisocial personality disorder. Narcissistic personality disorder is called psychopathy lite. Duterte has both, antisocial PD and NPD. Lumabas na ito during the campaign period. But sad to say many filipinos do not understand the gravity of this kind of personality.

Obviously P. D30 is not perfect, he's a man with a hundred flaws. First time after a long lonnnnnngggg while na nagka-Pres tayo na umaaksyon at may tunay na adhikaing mapuksa ang corrupt nating sistema, saka pa natin sya ida-down? After so many presidents had the chance to better this country and yet their term ended and still status quo pa rin tayo. Why throw stones at D30 now?

Because of the above mentioned characteristics of your beloved fpresident we are in a moral limbo now. Some filipinos are so diehard that they dont see the bad which is farr more than the good things his tenure will lead the country.

You, 16M, are what you are now, vicious, because of your aspiring god of the universe.

eto lang sagot dyan, sino ba may hawak ng media, the same people who dont like him, affected kasi mga pansariling interest nila, this guy Du30 will definitely work for the good of the many and not just few greedy men.

And what's the relevance of this? He has done more than other presidents combined. The problem is that what he is doing does not benefit the elite (and those who feel entitled) kaya galit kayo. For majority of Filipinos (who do not read blogs or have online access), those who hardly felt any economic improvement in the past, he has done small things that make a big impact in their lives. It takes a specific type of personality to make hard decisions. I still support the president. While I don't agree with some of his policies and cringe when he says something outrageous, I believe his heart is in the right place.

because he's leading OUR country? What did he exactly do other than Slaughter filipinos as if they're pigs being sold in stores? maybe his antics work for davao but an ENTIRE country is a different story.

His rating is still high because it is still 3 months since he took office. Let's give him 2 or 3 yrs and see what happens with the Philippines. He is leaning towards China and Russia. He is saying he wants independent foreign policy but is afraid to antagonize China.

How can one be happy knowing these people were killed without due process? These are all poor Filipinos. Why not start from the root of all these drugs. Tell your president to go against China instead, where most illegal drugs are coming from. Dare...

To say that the past presidents have done nothing is just plain dumb and ignorant. Different presidents have different priorities, Pnoy had penalized the high ranking corrupt officials and got the Philippines 2 positive investment ratings, to name a few major accomplishments during his term. I'm not a yellowtard (i am not even a registered voter), but for people to brag about what the current president has done and discredit the previous admin just goes to show how misinformed and one sided are Duterte's followers.

4:07, damn you are right. Just because the previous president is not the type who does shock news on his every achievements, it doesn't mean, he didn't do anything good for the country. A true diplomat and a statesman knows when and when not to open his mouth. Silence is a virtue.

There are good and bad traits in a person. We are all capable of doing good and bad things. Tanggapin ang magaganda at hindi magagandang ugali at gawain ni President. Timbangin at maging mapanuri kung deserving ba ng suporta ang isang gawain. You don't have to agree with everything he does, pwede naman agree sa iba at disagree sa iba.

Ms. Zimmerman has spoken for herself. She asked for an annulment. She is a prime example of a person who saw both the good and bad in Duterte. She respects and supports the good in Duterte but recognizes and does not support his bad traits, hence the annulment.

The fact that she continues to support Duterte as President does not change the fact that she suffered when she was with him, and she suffered so badly that she felt the need to get out of that marriage.

Normal reason for annulment is psychological incapacity. There was even a celeb before who said that she is for divorce because annulment is such a nasty process that in order for it to be granted, the couple will destroy each other or one side will be maligned.

He may have a motive in all of this. After all, he said he'd be replaced by his ally come the time the people want him out. As if that would be allowed. Parang appointment lang ba ang presidency sa kanya haha
